Kamitsubaki City Under Construction: "Ensemble" and "Regenerate" (and "Regenerate Virtual Reality") are coming soon -- and will be in English!!! (AKA: my "PLEASE PLAY KAMICITY" shill post)

What is Kamitsubaki City and Virtual Witch Phenomenon?

A thread for newcomers to Kamitsubaki, in light of the 3 new games upcoming! This is the oversea's first look at Kamitsubaki's stories and creative worlds. (Slightly edited mirror of my thread on Twitter!!)

Kamitsubaki Studio is a Japanese creative music group. They're most known for their music group Virtual Witch Phenomenon -- comprising of their 5 main virtual singer talents: Kaf, Rim, Harusaruhi, Isekaijoucho, and Koko.

Kamitsubaki City Under Construction (henceforth referred to as simply KamiCity) is a series of games that tells the story of a mysterious city in the virtual world that constantly self-destructs and reforms. The members of VWP are characters in KamiCity, and have different names.

ALSO SUBSCRIBE TO VWP!!!! and the individual members too!! They all have such unique and stunning voices, and such beautiful songs too!!! They each have their own style that's drawn their own individual fanbases but they unite so beautifully and melodiously as VWP...

Kaf - Morisaki Kafu

Rim - Tanioki Rime

Harusaruhi - Asanushi Haru

Isekaijoucho - Yorukawa Sekai

Koko - Rinne Koko

The five girls were brought to KamiCity from the real world into the virtual world, as the mystical "witches" who could sing to save them from the apocalypse.

KamiCity as a game series started with KamiCity Emergence, a limited-run mobile game in 2021 in which players solved word puzzles known as "Q's." And then KamiCity Narrative released earlier this year (2023), a VN/TTRPG-style game. Both are Japanese exclusive, though.

KamiCity Ensemble, Regenerate, and Regenerate Virtual Reality are the three new games here.

KamiCity Ensemble is a rhythm game for mobile and Steam. The key visual focuses on the Isotope versions of VWP -- you may know the CeVIO Kafu as one of them.

The isotopes/CeVIOs (now SynthV and VOICEPEAK too) are Kafu, Sekai, Rime, Coko, and Haru. Before now, the Isotopes have had very few involvement or connection with KamiCity, with only Kafu appearing in the "Emergence" soundtrack (NOT the story.) What their connection is to the Witches and KamiCity in-lore is still unknown, which is super interesting!

KamiCity Regenerate is a visual novel for Steam and Switch, seeming to focus on the story of KamiCity in full detail.

In Emergence and Narrative, the story was only in bits and pieces. Regenerate (and Ensemble) is also a huge deal because they're in English too!

The VR version seems to be roughly the same, although having exclusive 3D visuals. It's also undetermined at this point what platform it will be on.

Kamitsubaki Studio has repeatedly blown me away by their music and intrigued me by their world of KamiCity (which is also featured in their music videos) so I'm so excited to see it in full!! PLAY KAMICITY PLEAAAASEEEE!!!!!!!!! and listen to their music/watch the music videos IT'S SO GOOD!!!!!

okay so I'm probably delusional in thinking that Frimomen will be announced for a release this soon after synth v 2's launch, I know the other companies are already announcing new vocals for SV and vocals that came out less than a year ago are already announced to have upgrades coming soon, but I feel like ? I hope at least that his synth v bank got him a lot more traction.

I didn't know about frimomen until literally the day his synth v released (though sometimes I feel like he's been with me just as long as miku. icl), but when I go down my deep dives for content, I do notice there's a lot less content before his synth v bank was announced, there were slightly more fan posts talking about him with his voicepeak release from what I've seen, but I think last year he took off. my friends who have known about him a lot longer seem to think the same so that's why I'm speculating that he'll be announced for SV2 tomorrow or at least on his anniversary

The reason I think it's either tomorrow (April 1st for japan, ik it's still march 30 here but timezones lol) is because of him being used for most AHS april fool's jokes over the years, so I don't think it's super unlikely for him to be announced. that being said that's also Teto's 16th anniversary, so it's possible that instead AHS announces him on April 25th which was the day he released last year... so I'm hoping... HOPING... that we get an announcement. I doubt there'd be many demos or anything I know usually there's like four? to eight??? months between announcement/release, ik his release was pushed back due to staff illness though. anyway I'm iffy about an april first announcement because of teto/the nature of april fool's jokes in general by companies (though I don't think it's still out of the question), but I feel like the 25th for SURE has to be a related announcement because it's the one year anniversary...

Another reason why I think frimomen might be announced soon is because of the amount of traction he has on twitter, he regularly interacts with + follows back his followers, I've had a lot of interactions with him and recently he's been letting loose and feeding into the yaoi dreams of the frimokiyo shippers since kiyo released so the PR team DEFINITELY knows what the frimofans want and they're great in engaging with the fandom (I mentioned kou-sensei sharing my birthday and he immediately wished me happy birthday like they KNOW what their fans look for LOL)

now onto my wants for SV2 frimomen. first I want to talk about my issues with his sv1 bank because I've had some since the beginning, but I do really think most of it boils down to not knowing how successful he'd be commercially so I understand not wanting to put as much dev time as they could into the bank (I truly don't think the staff delay has had any impact on it though it was most likely unfortunate coincidence, to my knowledge AHS is a small company so it makes sense).

My first issue is compared to the other AI banks I used in both SV1 and SV2, there's a noticable difference in his vocoding quality. now I'm not too picky in general about vocoding quality! I don't think it makes or breaks a bank (in fact I think some banks are weird with it too high, like realistic kafu is odd to me), however sometimes it can make mixing certain songs hard. I prefer it when the vocoding is high quality in many cases and it's not even about realism it's literally just because mixing is a nightmare at times and a voice with lq vocoding can be infuriating at times. however I do think the sv2 vocoding quality is much better so thankfully that is something that seems to be solved, it was my biggest issue.

however now that I might end up becoming an sv2 main (didn't think that would happen but 24 hours into messing with the demo I discovered genbu's increased powers lmfao), I dooooo want him to get an sv2 bank because there are some things in the engine that I want to try out with him but are incompatible with sv1 banks, like the advanced editing for vocal modes. I also really dislike how hard it is to edit his phonemes in both sv1 and 2 so it's something I hope that is improved on. I think he's also scarily good at falsetto already however if we have a bassmen mode I'd like to request a falsetto/frimotan setting and it could be called kawaiimen bc I feel like that's in character for him lol. I also feel like in general his bank doesn't mesh too well with the ai model for the rap setting and I want that to be fixed.

another thing is I'll be honest I'm not sure if this is normal for most banks but it is kinda sad that he has no updates since he got released for sv1, he's still on 1.0. I'm guessing though it's definitely because he was one of the last sv1 banks to release and by the time he released iirc they announced sv2 development so I'm like pretty sure it's related to that. but it makes me wonder if they were planning on any updates but decided to wait until sv2's release/they were done with miki and kiyo and then return to it afterwards. that's another reason why I'm thinking he will be announced soon, because I doubt that they intended it to be a one and done deal with no updates.

some smaller requests that aren't too serious:

I actually really like it when voice banks have accents in their xsl, and I adore genbu's slight accent when I use him in english, so I think it'd be nice if frimomen could have more of an accent, though I feel that's more to do with the way the xsl ai model works than the recordings/banks themselves.

if they do add more vocal modes, along with the falsetto voice I think it'd be cool if they wanted to listen to the fans begging on twitter (mostly me I've noticed from name searching lmfao) for a frimotan vocal mode, they could make a separate one so that it's easier to get her! akira, frimomen's voice provider, has said publicly he wants to voice frimotan more often so there's still hope <- delusional maybe

in the 4koma comics he has a brother named frimomen 2 that is just him but in a black macho suit. I think it would be really funny if they didn't commission muni and maruan and just recoloured his og synth v box art to be frimomen 2. but also at the same time muni and maruan are The frimo illustrators to me so I don't want that to happen if that would snub them of more money. especially maruan they are frimomen's creator and I love seeing that they still illustrate for ahs <3

I hope that they commission akira koga for more art of frimomen as a celebration for his release because he really does enjoy voicing frimomen and also his art is really good and I want to see more of it I get sad that he rarely if ever posts it

and finally if they keep bringing on different artists that white wash him in official art I'm going to go insane he literally has a flat colour ref I'll kill someone.

sorry for my frimoramble I had a lot more to say I think than I thought I did LOL but I hope you guys understand. tldr frimomen is important to me for many reasons, not only did he completely reignite my love for vocal synths and music production in general but also he genuinely helped me get out of a horrible situation and I'm not kidding lol. too personal to say here but I'll probably say it in yet Another post.

although I'm annoyed that people only like frimomen's ikeoji design and hate everything else about him and ignore that and aren't true frimoheads (/lh), I am glad that AHS was smart and made ikeoji frimomen real. because if he wasn't and my gay ass didn't get duped by a sexy middle aged man with huge tits I wouldn't have gone back into the vocal synth community to this extent. so thanks I guess to AHS for creating an insane guy that caters to my exact tastes LOL

Weekly Vocajournal #65 (03/03 - 09/03)

kemu - Rat Hope (ft. GUMI)

Thanking kemu and the universe for a new release! His newer GUMI tuning (and by that I mean since Gareki no Tou) is soft and ethereal, and this is no exception. That combined with the gentle song provides some comfort to the painful lyrics. The quiet sadness is beautiful.

RuLu - Asobi (ft. VY2)

This released around Vocacolle, but this isn't an entry; it's a simultaneous release with the 9Lana version. Anyway, love a good VY2 song in 2025.

mikitoP - YAMI CROW (ft. SF-A2 Miki SV2)

Putting the "miki" back in mikitoP! Miki is beautifully soft, and the PV was eyecatching.

Nejishiki - No pain, no gain. (ft. Satou Sasara, Suzuki Tsudumi, Yuzuki Yukari Rei, IA CeVIO, Takahashi Amato)

CeVIO FESTA 10 theme song. I don't think I've ever heard Suzuki Tsudumi and Takahashi Amato in a song before this so thank you Nejishiki for the introduction.

[bmpmp3]

i do find it a little funny when i see people complain about how vocal synth characters are on all kinds of software other than just vocaloid nowadays. i understand it can be confusing to keep track of especially if you're not really interested in the software side of things - but you can download and use zundamon across like ten million different programs right this moment and for me i cant think of that as any other way than absolutely awesome
